Through a Green Lens: Cinema and Creation
Through a Green Lens: Cinema and Creation
September 15 @ 7:00 pm – September 16 @ 3:30 pm CDT
$175
Through story, image, and shared reflection, this retreat invites you into a contemplative way of engaging film that deepens awareness of our connection with creation. We will gather for three screenings—Billy & Molly, Spirited Away, and The Biggest Little Farm—each offering a distinct window into what it means to live lovingly and responsibly within our shared home: a story of unexpected companionship and mutual healing between a man and a wild otter in the Shetland Islands; an animated mythic world that explores the consequences of unchecked consumption and the recovery of wonder and identity; and a family’s journey of ecological restoration through patient, responsive collaboration with the land.
Please register by September 8th.
After receiving your registration, you will receive a confirmation email from us which will be your invoice. We never want our retreat costs to be prohibitive to anyone who wants to attend our programs, so we are pleased to offer scholarships. Fill out our simple scholarship request form now!
